Does that long answer include more than person's contribution? No?
There doesn't. But that makes it a monologue. Review posts 179/180.
Ok, so this is going to be word games again. Your reply is also a Monologue then. I am 99.9% always replying to somebody. It's 99.9% always a Dialog. I believe that in all these posts only one time was it was not a reply to somebody. But in that case I was adding some new thoughts to the Discussion for all to read.
For cryin; out loud, you're the one playing word games.
I of course have engaged in dialog. I'm just saying that some answers require more Explanation than others, and that it is more efficient to put links to relevant information than to cut and paste that information.
Yeah, what is that?I'm still waiting for the reveal about this new way of thinking about conscessness is going to be
The Collective Quantum Universal Cosmetic Mind where all knowledge is stored and us Minions tap into it

What does "Quantum" mean to you in: "The Collective Quantum Universal Cosmetic Mind"?
This is delightful.
And then reading a thread in Quotes to remember I find this
You are the only one who doesn't realize I'm just messing around with the dopey term.
I had to look this up. It seems that Frank Tipler has taken hold of Teilhard de Chardin's metaphysical idea of the "Omega Point" and extended it, with some rather bogus quantum mechanical arguments. Teilhard de Chardin, being a Jesuit, had this idea that the cosmos was teleological and tended towards development of higher and higher degrees of consciousness (the "noosphere"), culminating in the Omega Point, which he more or less identified with God. (I simplify.) Tipler has built up, from the notion most physicists now think is daft, that wave function collapse requires a conscious observer, a theory that there must be some ultimate conscious observer. Or something - I got a bit bored trying to disentangle it.And then reading a thread in Quotes to remember I find this
AlexM. Vikoulov, The Origins of Us: Evolutionary Emergence and the Omega Point Cosmology
from the author of the quote I am taking to be title of his book. Any takers as to what Omega Point Cosmology is?

There's a whole pseudoscientific literary sub-genre of what might be called "quantum mysticism". Early proponents include Tipler, Frijov (?) Capra (the Tao of Physics guy), Deepak Chopra ... basically anybody who thinks the "Omega point" is a theory of physics, or that it follows from the principles of quantum mechanics.
